JD Inge, originally from Superior, Colorado, is a junior at Duke University studying mechanical engineering with an aerospace certificate. Beyond research, he is involved with Duke AERO building competition rockets and expanding aerospace opportunities for students.
Research Interests
As a member of the aeromechanics and CFD team, he is working to improve mistuning studies. Utilizing an in-house code to perform mistuing studies and data from computational fluid dynamics simulations, JD is working on predicting the behavior of rotor blades due to slight defects and inconsistencies.
